Have just had the 4 wheel alignment sorted out by CL CM Autotyre, 11 Bankhead Drive Sighthill Industrial Estate Edinburgh EH11 4EJ 0131 453 2698. They used a laser measurement set up and printed out a before and after report. The rear wheels were generally well out of adjustment and the toe and camber on the front was out too. Took less than 45 mins and the guy knows his stuff. Looked like the rear end had never been touched. £59, a bit less than the £100 expected.
Handling is much better and smoother. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif The vibration that I had been suffering has almost gone, I think there may be a balance problem. I had the wheels balanced when i got the new tyres on, so there may have been some uneven wear which i am going to wait and see if it wears back again now everything is strightened out.
Had a good look at the brakes while it was up on the ramp, and new pads are the next thing to do. This is endless.
Have now had a good thrash around in the wet and the F1s are fine, as are the Sportsmaxes, no slides at either end.
